Be inspired by nature and fill your home with indoor plants and fresh flowers

Nothing makes me happier than filling my home with fresh flowers. But right now I have loving the trend of decorating with indoor plants. Keep it simple and stylish. I love the idea of simple white pots, glass planters or cane baskets for large, oversized plants like palms and figs. There is a huge craze for succulents with is perfect for me because I'm not great in the watering department so succulents are very forgiving if you forget to water them!

Sunny, beach days are slipping away - it's getting darker earlier and crisper in the mornings. The holiday makers have departed our pretty coastal town leaving the locals in peace and quiet for the autumn and winter months. It's this time of the year that I am desperate to make my summer last as long as possible so I make the most of every sunny day. Today promises to be a perfect beach day so the kids and I will arm ourselves with beach towels, beach bags, sunscreen and magazines and head to the beach for an afternoon of fun in the sun. We'll come back sandy and salty with sun kissed skin feeling very pleased with ourselves!
